I love For Honor it really is a hit for me but i find it very incredibly frustrating when i play Beserker and go up against Kensei. Now i can kick a lot of peoples *** with Beserker cause of his mobility, and thats how i play him. I don't block attacks i dodge them and hit them while i dodge, however i can't do that because Kensie attacks are nearly impossible to doge away from. I dodge to right i get hit (2 health bars gone) i doge to the left (Another 3 heath bars gone), i then back up go for the headsplitter combo. Nope i get ****ed, he blocks it or he dodges it either way i cant get close to him without getting killed which sucks cause thats how you play Beserker .
PLEASE CHANGE THE ATTACK SPEED ON KENSEI because its just not humanly possible to keep up and kill another Kensei with Beserker.
PS: No matter how broken Kensei is to Beserker. For Honor is definitely the best game iv ever played and its in closed beta!!! Ubisoft has finally hit the jackpot, thank you so much props to all who made the game.

In other words "i kill other other classes all the time, but this one class is giving me a hard time so please nerf it so my class can kill everyone"....
thats how i play him. I don't block attacks i dodge them and hit them while i dodge
Perhaps you should adapt your tactic and block. "That's how i play" is not an excuse. If that's how you play, that's how you'll lose from some heroes. Heroes aren't meant to be great against everyone. Some have counters that are better against them. If they do what you're saying then we'll have to nerf the Berserker too so..

i had a better time with the zerker using parry instead of block

The thing I've noticed playing as a zerk against kensei is that their stamina and stamina in general for samurai takes forever to deplete. im not sure if they have a passive or what but with their range and the deflect being incredibly hard to do, especially against a fast attacker. Parrying or dodging and getting a guard break is about the only way to work against them. But you cant dodge allot, one thing i've noticed is dodging will drain your stamina faster than your chain attacks will (which doesn't make since to me) so you still have to be aggressive and get in for some hits and repeat.
I agree it's more difficult than it should be but it's doable and i think its more about the changes made to the zerker over the abilities of the kensei.

Blocking with Beserker is the hardest thing in the game in my opinion because his blocks only last half a second before they block at all. Parrying is something i have to get better at i agree but why is Kensei the only one in the game that i need to parry to kill. This game is about versatility, being able to play any character you want in the style that you want to play them. In other words you can play other characters anyway you want why shouldn't you be able to play beserker as a mobile character and not a defensive character against ONLY one character in the game. Now i know he's meant to counter Beserker, but holy **** i can't even get near one without getting killed. Its not like the character is hard to play, his rating is easy for god sakes. Yet he ****s on every Beserker (the hardest character in the game) because of his damage. Also orochi i know is a counter to Beserker but at least you have a chance of being able to win that fight. Im sure if everyone does play testing of there own they will see a clear line between Orochi and Kensei when vrs a Beserker
Or plan B don't nerf Kensei just give Beserker another move where he can break an opponents guard without being interrupted. Maybe you can only use this once you have successfully landed a chain. I feel like he needs another move because he's got so few. HOWEVER i have only played this game for a day and half, Ubisoft has played this game for years, im just here to input my ideas so that you make a better game for your ever growing community.

The timing for the berserker agianst the kensei is different then other classes. You can pretty much out dodge every other class but the kensei's range will hit you if you don't properly time it. You don't have to hit a deflect every time but you aren't just free to dodge side to side and never get hit. When I fight kensei I plan on doing more blocking then I would against other classes. Other than his side attacks and poke he's slow and can be out maneuvered

Look KENSEI IS NOT THE PROBLEM. Beserker needs a unblockable kick like Nobushi, maybe a jump kick like his head slicer. Just so he can actually win a fight against a samurai or a peacekeeper without them having to be noobs. I mean Beserker is going to be so **** to play when everyone gets good at the game because he just simply cant keep up with everyone. Give him a move to slow people down and he might actually be able **** **** up and keep up with everyone AND make me a very happy person.
Everyone tell me what you think. Also be true to yourself don't write a comment because you got rekt by a Beserker only write if you understand his mechanics and if you have played him before.
